Answer :

LadyStrange

Let Alyssa's horse's age be x .

Then :-

Alyssa's age = 2x

Age of her horse when it died = 24

Alyssa's age when her horse died =

[tex]2x \\ = 2 \times x \\ = 2 \times 24 \\ = 48 \: years[/tex]

∴ Alyssa was 48 years old when her horse Midnight died .

Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

Alyssa was twice the age of midnight so 10 ÷2 =5(age gap)

Midnight died at 24 so Alyssa was 29 that time because

24+5(age gap) =29

Hope this helps
